Thanks for the comments. I just wasnt sure how much length I could get away with underneath the piece. My plan was to buzz to a #3 all over and attach it from there. But now that looks like it wont work and since it is lace it might not be functinal because of lift. I guess a skin base might give me more wiggle room but Ive heard lace is better to go with as your first. No problems, I guess I'll just buzz to a #1 or #0
